Exclusive summary about Remote Control Car Setup Tips by Gregory Alexander

Setting up a remote control car is as much a science as it is an art. If you know how rc car setup changes in a race car work, you already know how to setup a remote control car.

Over steer / under steer Tuning tips

There are a lot of ways to tune the handling or your radio controlled car, the easiest is to adjust the front and rear shocks. While there are a lot of options with springs, different oils and all sorts we are just going to concentrate on the basics, most decent shocks have adjustments, either with spacers or bolts that let you adjust how hard or soft the shocks are.

As far as maximum and minimum stiffness goes, make sure that the bottom of your car doesn’t scrape the ground, and on the other end make sure it doesn’t bounce and leave the asphalt, apart from that you need to find the setup that matches your driving style, most people get winning setups off the internet and try to learn to drive them, mind you this is a great starting point, and most championship winners post their setup sheets.

Shock Stiffness guide

Stiffen in front = increasing under steer or reducing over steer
Stiffen in rear = increasing over steer or reducing under steer

Building the Fastest Remote Controlled Car – Some Amazing Tips

Exclusive summary about Building Fastest RC Car by Abhishek Agarwal

There are various qualities of the components that are available for building a remote controlled car. Hobby stores provide simple components that can be used to build a simple car. However, if you want to build the most amazing or the fastest remote controlled car, you may need to spend some money on quality car components. Nitro methane is an alternative fuel to gasoline and works well for remote controlled cars. A nitro engine is a good choice for fast engine speeds.

The other components of a car are also important for the performance of a remote controlled car, especially when you aim for absolute speed. The wheels for a remote controlled car should be extremely light, yet firm. A single part that does not perform well will affect the overall performance and speed of the remote controlled car. Select the best parts to get the best performance from your remote controlled car.

Check Up For RC Cars

Exclusive summary about Check Ups For RC Cars By Shareen Aguilar

Most RC car owners would get so excited by the time they put their hands on their very own remote-controlled cars just because owning one is like owning a big car as well. But of course, no matter how different these RC cars are compared to actual cars that big boys drive, there are important reminders one has to remember and follow.

For your RC car, make sure that you run several check ups before and after using it. A fail safe test is always good prior to using your RC car. Be sure that you know your car’s speed capacity and limit before starting off with a speed.

Setting up a rc car is as much a science as it is an art, the physics behind rc cars is exactly the same as the physics that governs real cars, if you know how setup changes in a race car work, you already know how to setup a remote control car.

Understeer. Understeer is when the front of the car loses traction while the rear of the car still has grip on the tar, the effect is that the nose of the car drifts away from the direction you are turning, turning harder makes it worse, the only thing you can really do is back off the throttle and bleed off speed.

Oversteer. The front of the car keeps traction while the rear lets go. One of the key benefits is that you can typically corner much faster in a car that has some over steer
